Samuel Johnson Quotes
All Bodies Have Spirits And Pneumatical Parts Within Them; But The Main Differences Between Animate And Inanimate, Are Two: The First Is, That The Spirit Of Things Animate Are All Contained Within Themselves, And Are Branched In Veins And Secret Canals, As Blood Is; And, In Living Creatures, The Spirits Have Not Only Branches, But Certain Cells Or Seats, Where The Principal Spirits Do Reside, And Whereunto The Rest Do Resort: But The Spirits In Things Inanimate Are Shut In, And Cut Off By The Tangible Parts, And Are Not Pervious One To Another, As Air Is In Snow.Bacon'sNatural History,No 601.
